Indicative Descriptors (Review)

The indicative descriptors can help VET providers to consider their approach to quality assurance and gauge how much progress has been made. The following analysis presents two contrasting statements for each descriptor. You are invited to consider which of these statements best describes your own approach. By considering each contrasting statement, you can review your own progress towards a European system of quality assurance.

Learners’ feedback is gathered on their individual learning experience and on the learning and teaching environment. Together with teachers’ feedback this is used to inform further actions

Would you describe your approach to quality assurance as one where:
1. full account is taken of learners’ and teachers’ feedback in the review of practice
or
2. any review is less likely to take account of learners' and teachers’ feedback

Results/outcomes of the evaluation process are discussed with relevant stakeholders and appropriate action plans are put in place

Would you describe your approach to quality assurance as one where:
1. the outcomes of the reviews are shared widely in order to appropriate action plans to be put in place
or
2. reviews are usually only considered by the management team
